Emigre is proud to present the sixth book of photographs by Rudy VanderLans titled Bagdad, Californie.

For this book VanderLans set out to document a location based solely on the promise raised by its name which he accidentally notices when studying a San Bernardino County map. What he finds is as unexpected as it is beautiful.

The book was published by French publisher Editions Du Rouergue as part of a series of books produced by artists under the imprint Touzazimute.
